UChicagoGRAD manages three Exchange programs, which allow eligible PhD students to take advantage of faculty, classes, and research centers at 25 partner institutions. There are other exchange programs, typically between specific academic units and a partner institution, which are not managed by our office, and students should speak to their Dean of Students office or the coordinator of the exchange at the other institution to learn more. For each of our Exchange programs (listed below), participants must receive institutional approvals from both the home and host institutions.

UChicago students who wish to participate in a UChicagoGRAD Exchange program should first consult with their faculty advisor, and carefully review the eligibility requirements below. We can only facilitate Exchanges that your academic advisor has already approved. Similarly, students at a partner Exchange institution should consult with their faculty advisor, and their home institution’s Exchange coordinator.

Information for University of Chicago students

Requirements

  • University of Chicago students who wish to participate in the BTAA, CMEP, or Ivy Plus Exchange programs (explained below) must be enrolled full-time in a PhD program. Students in other degree programs are not eligible to apply.
  • You may only apply with the approval of your faculty advisor, and in most cases your program’s DGS or department chair, as well as your Dean of Students office.
  • Not all partner institutions allow Exchange students to register for classes, and auditing is not allowed . Please consult the Exchange website of your intended host institution to determine if they allow Exchange students to take classes, particularly for the Ivy Plus Exchange. UChicago students are allowed to take classes at The Graduate School at Northwestern University (via the BTAA) and UIC (via the CMEP).

Other Factors to Consider

  • Students may only apply to take classes at host institutions (if that institution allows it) that are not offered at the home institution.
  • Eligible students should first consult with their academic adviser who will determine whether the opportunity is likely to enhance the student’s course of study.
  • Exchange participation may not exceed two semesters or three quarters. This applies regardless of whether the Exchange participation is for coursework or research: participating in the Exchange during three separate quarters, to take one class each time, uses the same amount of eligibility as spending a year in Exchange status for research purposes. Any extensions or changes to an approved Exchange agreement will require a separate application form.
  • Some institutions do charge Exchange students fees, including their equivalent of the UChicago Graduate Student Services Fee or a separate health services fee in some cases. UChicago does not cover these fees on your behalf – you are liable for any charges from your host institution.

Application Process

Once you and your advisor have agreed that an Exchange is appropriate to your academic program, and is available to you through one of the Exchange agreements (detailed below),  you must complete the specific application for that institution. The list of universities affiliated with each program can be found below. Detailed information, procedures, and application instructions specific to each program are provided on the respective program website linked below. Students are strongly encouraged to submit a completed application to GRAD Exchange at least six weeks before the start of the academic term at the host institution – most of which are on semesters.

Exception : Our office does not process BTAA Exchange applications for Booth/Kellogg course registration.

  • Please see below for important information about UChicago’s academic calendar and how it affects Exchange applicants, including the application deadlines and key dates for the 2024-25 academic year.
  • Students may only take classes at UChicago that are not offered at the home institution, and they should be doctoral-level classes. Undergraduate or master’s level classes, or courses housed outside of UChicago but cross-listed into our course schedule, are not eligible.
  • Eligible students should first consult with their academic adviser at the home institution who will determine whether the opportunity is likely to enhance the student’s course of study.
  • Exchange students may not exceed two semesters or three quarters regardless of the number of courses taken. Any extensions to an approved Exchange agreement will require a new application form.
  • Big Ten Academic Alliance Traveling Scholars Program
  • Chicago Metropolitan Exchange Program
  • Ivy Plus Exchange Scholars Program
  • UChicago’s academic calendar follows the quarter system, rather than semesters. Autumn Quarter is typically very late September to mid-December; Winter Quarter is very early January through mid-March; Spring Quarter is mid- or late-March through early June. Exchange status is only available during Summer Quarter for research purposes, not for coursework.
  • Class Schedules for a given quarter are not published until a few weeks prior to the beginning of that quarter – sometimes after your home institution’s deadline to apply for the Exchange. Please see below for UChicago’s key dates and submission deadlines. For Autumn Quarter of 2024, which begins on September 30, the graduate course schedule will be published on August 26. Until the actual Schedule of Classes is available, you are welcome to consult the Catalog, but should know that the Catalog is a general index of all classes that have been taught, not a schedule for a specific year or quarter.
  • Registration for Autumn Quarter at UChicago takes place the week before classes start.  There is no way for us to guarantee a seat in an Autumn Quarter class, even if your Exchange Application is approved, until the Wednesday or Thursday prior to the start of classes. We allow UChicago graduate students to have access to register for classes for at least two or three days before we begin to request seats for Exchange students. Registration for Winter and Spring Quarters is earlier, starting in or shortly after the 6th week of the previous quarter.

Key Dates and Deadlines for Visiting Students, 2024 – 2025

Ivy Plus applications: Ivy Plus applications should be submitted to UChicago  at least 8 weeks prior to the start of your intended exchange quarter.

Exchange PhD Students

Students who are visiting Ghent University to perform research in the context of their PhD (for which they are enrolled at another university) and who are defending their PhD at their home institute and not (also) at UGent are administratively called “exchange PhD-students" or visiting students. This exchange can take place within Erasmus+ mobility or within another structure.

Some facts and figures about Ghent University

How to enroll as an exchange phd student.

Ghent University welcomes all exchange PhD students who come to our University in order to conduct part of their research in the framework of their PhD. A bilateral agreement between your home institution and Ghent University in your field of study is not necessary but optional.

However, if you want to follow courses as an exchange PhD student, an agreement between your home institution and Ghent University is obligatory.

All applications need the explicit commitment of a Ghent University professor who will act as your research  supervisor.  So the first step is to approach a professor within your research area and discuss the possibilities. Once you have found a professor who is willing to act as your host you can apply.

Applications in the framework of PhD studies and research stays should be submitted at least two months prior to arrival. For students who need a visa to travel to Belgium it is advised to submit the application at least 3 months in advance.

Exchange Application

You need to create a Ghent University account and register via the  Oasis website In this procedure you need to select your faculty, the correct academic year of your exchange and choose the correct semester in which your exchange period would fall. Click on the link ‘Exchange’ under ‘Curriculum’. For questions, please contact the administrator of your host faculty at Ghent University.

You will have to upload some documents

  • Proof of enrolment as a PhD student at your home University
  • A signed Learning Agreement. Please chose the correct template for doctoral mobility

Most important is that your personal details are filled in and that this document is signed by yourself and your home institution and your contact person from UGent . Please make sure the Learning Agreement is completely filled in and signed, dated and stamped where necessary!

Language skills

Your knowledge of Dutch and English. Please consult the language requirements in order to prepare the correct English language  certificate .

Contact details of your FCI-administrator.

Approval Procedure

  • The faculty needs to approve and sign the Learning Agreement.
  • After approval, you can continue the procedure in Oasis.
  • After submitting your complete exchange application the Faculty Officer responsible for Internationalisation (FCI) and the UGent promoter will check if your application is complete and if you are eligible.

After your exchange application has been approved, you will automatically receive an official invitation letter from Ghent University. You need this letter for your student visa application together with a letter of your promotor specifying the dates of your study stay.

The approval procedure can take a few weeks.

When applying for a student / family reunion visa or residence permit, international PhD students need to prove that they have sufficient means of subsistence to cover their living expenses, study, healthcare and repatriation costs. This can be proven in different ways.

Exchange PhD students are exempt from a tuition fee. Exchange PhD students pay bench fee only in case the promotor wishes so and if it is part of a possible scholarship you receive during your stay. A idea about the costs of living in Belgium.

Ghent University offers accommodation to exchange PhD students only after the admission application has been completed and this for a maximum period of 6 months. As soon as you can log in to Oasis with your prospect number you can make this booking.  Read more information about housing  for (exchange) PhD students.

Accommodation in a dorm at Ghent University to start can be practical, because you can domicile there and you have time to search for a place to stay on the private market.

If you are looking for a place to stay on the private market, you can request a list of short term rentals from [email protected] .

There’s a closed group on Facebook with rooms for expats There is a closed Facebook group ‘Rooms in Ghent for Erasmus students’

3. Insurance

International PhD students are legally obliged to have a health insurance during their stay in Belgium (for themselves and their family members staying in Belgium).

Ghent University provides an All-in insurance for liability, sickness and accidents for PhD students. This can only be requested online by a UGent staf member, so therefore, please contact your faculty administration. The cost of the UGent all-in insurance is about 2,7 euro/day.

Read this important information carefully.

4. Money and banking

Practical info regarding banking and taxes in Belgium

In case you need to open a Belgian bank account, we advise you to choose KBC Bank: Kouter 175, 9000 Gent. They offer a very good service for international students. Or use a bank of your choice.

The Ivy Plus Exchange Scholar Program facilitates an exchange of study and research for doctoral students enrolled at the following institutions: University of California at Berkeley, Brown University, University of Chicago, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, MIT, University of Pennsylvania, Princeton University, Stanford University, and Yale University.  

Students may study at one of the other schools for a limited period of time, to take advantage of educational opportunities not available at their home institution. The academic experience, including taking courses or conducting research, will be registered on the academic record maintained by the student’s home institution. (IvyPlus Scholars should inquire with their host institution whether transcripts are issued automatically, or upon request, as practices differ among institutions).    

Ivy Plus Scholars may register for up to two classes per term, or for one thesis research subject, and only for the term(s) indicated on the application. They may register for a minimum of one semester (at a time) for a maximum of two semesters plus one summer.  

Applying:  

Follow the policies of your home institution and complete the IvyPlus Exchange Scholar application . Obtain signatures from your academic advisor and department chair, or director of graduate studies.   

Submit the signed application to the designated administrative office, see page 7 of the application for school contacts. MIT students submit applications to the Office of Graduate Education through this email . 

Applications are due two months prior to the registration date at the host institution. For MIT the fall deadline is the end of June, for the Spring it is late November. Check with the appropriate administrative office for precise dates. Applications will be reviewed by the Office of Graduate Education (OGE) and forwarded to the host institution for completion.  

Please note, students in non-resident status are not eligible to participate in this program. 

For the Exchange Scholar coming to MIT:  

To pursue research, the student must first contact the MIT professor with whom they wish to work in advance of applying. To pursue course work, contact the MIT professor to ensure that the proposed plan is feasible.

Domestic Exchange Programs

The Graduate School has established exchange partnerships with 12 US-based institutions of higher education, which allow PhD students to spend a term or a full academic year at the host institution pursuing coursework or research at no additional tuition cost.

Exchange Scholar Program Partners

The Graduate School participates in the IvyPlus Exchange Scholar Program, which allows our PhD students to study and conduct research at one of the other 11 participating IvyPlus institutions for a term or an academic year at no additional tuition cost. 

Eligibility:

To participate in an outbound exchange program, Yale students must be enrolled in a PhD program and have completed at least one year of their program.

Before submitting an application, you should consult with your faculty adviser and Director of Graduate Studies (DGS) about your academic progress and funding considerations. Approval of your department or program is required in order to participate in an exchange. Students accompanying a dissertation adviser who has joined the host school may be permitted to extend the exchange for more than one year if both departments approve.

To participate in an inbound exchange, visiting Exchange Scholars must apply through their home institution and have the approval of the department with which they plan to affiliate at Yale.

Participating institutions:

  • University of California at Berkeley
  • Brown University
  • University of Chicago
  • Columbia University
  • Cornell University
  • Darthmouth College
  • Harvard University
  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology
  • University of Pennsylvania
  • Princeton University
  • Stanford University  

The Graduate School participates in the Jewish Theological Seminary of America ("JTSA") Exchange Scholar Program, which allows our PhD students to study and conduct research at the JTSA for a term or an academic year at no additional tuition cost. 

Eligibility: To participate in an outbound exchange program, Yale students must be enrolled in a PhD program and have completed at least one year of their program. To initiate an application, submit the PDF application form to Dean Sarah Insley .

Funding your exchange

The Graduate School's exchange agreements waive tuition at our partner institutions, but your host institution typically will not provide funding to cover living costs. Additionally, some host institutions may charge an application fee or fees for services that are not covered by tuition, which would be your responsibility to meet. 

PhD students in the humanities and social sciences who are not required to teach in the semester or year of their planned exchange will continue to receive their University Fellowship stipend. You should discuss the timing of your exchange with your director of graduate studies (DGS) and faculty adviser such that you will go during a term or year in which you receive the University Fellowship (UF). If you are a student in the sciences, you should discuss timing and funding considerations with your DGS and faculty adviser. You can also apply for external grants or fellowships to cover living expenses and costs during an exchange.

Application information

Applications for domestic exchanges must be submitted no later than eight weeks prior to your intended start. It is generally best to submit the application earlier than this to ensure that there is enough time for the host institution to approve the application and process your registration.

Both the IvyPlus Exchange Scholar Program application and the JTSA Exchange Scholar Program application are fillable PDF forms. Please complete the application parts A through C and submit the application to the administrative contact at the home institution for completion of part D. Note that parts E and F are completed by the administrative contact at the host institution. Any extension to an approved exchange enrollment requires a separate application form.

Registration at Yale

During the semester(s) of your exchange program, you should register in absentia at Yale. You can do so by submitting the Absentia form on the University Registrar’s website here .

If you are planning to enroll in one course at an IvyPlus institution within commuting distance while still based in New Haven and engaging in coursework or research here, you should register in residence at Yale. You will still need to complete the Exchange Scholar Program application to have the tuition at the host institution waived, and cross-register for the course following instructions sent by the host institution.

Health coverage

During your exchange, your health coverage will remain on your term bill unless these fees are waived by the appropriate deadline. Waiver forms and student rates for Yale students can be found on the Yale Health website . Some host institutions may allow Exchange Scholars to enroll in their health insurance program. Please consult with the host institution directly for more information about these options.

If you are going to be in the US on a domestic exchange, you have the option of enrolling in the Approved Academic Travel Rider program through Yale Health. The Yale Health pages on this option contain detailed information about deadlines for applying for the rider, coverage considerations, eligibility, and costs. Please review this information carefully before enrolling and make sure that you are aware costs, coverage, and the relevant application deadline, which is firm. You must first be registered in absentia (see above) to be eligible to apply. Only students registered in absentia in the US (excluding Alaska and Hawaii, and outside of the Yale Health coverage area in Connecticut) are eligible to enroll in the Approved Academic Travel Rider program.

California Hall at UC Berkeley

Exchange Programs with Other Universities

Exchange programs available at the graduate level include UC system intercampus, Berkeley-Stanford, and the Exchange Scholar program.

Intercampus Exchange within the University of California System

A graduate student registered on any campus of the University of California may go to another campus of the University as an Intercampus Exchange Graduate Student with the approval of:

  • the student’s graduate adviser
  • the chair of the department on the host campus
  • the deans of the Graduate Division on the home and the host campus

This privilege is available to graduate students who would like to associate with scholars or fields of study not available on the home campus, or who seek the use of special facilities and collections.

Download and submit the  UC Intercampus Exchange Program Application (PDF) or contact the Graduate Degrees Office .

Students are encouraged to file the completed application at least three weeks before the first day of the term on the host campus. ( Note: Berkeley is on the semester system; other UC campuses are on the quarter system.)

An intercampus exchange student  must register and pay fees on the home campus  to have library, health services, and other student privileges on the host campus. Students should contact the University Health Services unit on their home campus for more information about using their health insurance away from their home campus. Exchange students are considered graduate students in residence on the home campus and are not formally admitted to the host graduate school and department. Unless specifically restricted, fellowship recipients may participate in the Intercampus Exchange Program.

Stanford-Berkeley Exchange Program

A graduate student with a superior academic record may participate in the Stanford-Berkeley Exchange Program and take a limited number of courses that are offered at Stanford but not at Berkeley. Berkeley students must obtain the approval of the Head Graduate Adviser in their major and the Dean of the Graduate Division. Students must have a minimum 3.0 GPA and have completed one full year of graduate study at Berkeley. Download and submit the  Berkeley-Stanford Exchange Program Application  (PDF) or visit the  Graduate Degrees Office .

Students must register and pay the applicable fees at their home institution.

Exchange Scholar Program

The Exchange Scholar Program is designed to enable doctoral students with superior academic records to study at one of the participating institutions to take advantage of educational opportunities that are not available at Berkeley. Students are normally eligible to become an exchange scholar  only after  having completed one year in a Berkeley graduate degree program.

Students may take courses or conduct research with particular faculty at the host institution for no more than one year while remaining registered at Berkeley.

Participating institutions are Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Princeton, Stanford, UC Berkeley, University of Chicago, University of Pennsylvania, and Yale.

Exchange Programs with Other Universities

The University of California and Berkeley Social Welfare offer several campus exchange program options for doctoral students:

University of California Intercampus Exchange Program

The Intercampus Exchange Program is designed to allow Berkeley students to study at any of the other UC campuses where unique faculty resources may enrich their graduate program. The Berkeley registration fee entitles students to library, health service, and other privileges at the host campus. Students who participate in the intercampus exchange program can receive credit for courses they take at the host campus.

To be eligible for the Intercampus Exchange Program, a student must be registered at Berkeley by the Berkeley semester deadline and have the approval of the Head Graduate Adviser, the Chair of the host program, and the Deans of the Graduate Divisions at both Berkeley and the host campus. Applications are available from the Graduate Division in 318 Sproul. Students must apply for this program at least four weeks before the beginning of the term of enrollment at the host campus (all other UC campuses except Merced are on the quarter system). Separate applications are required for each term. Students should make personal arrangements with faculty members on both campuses to ensure that courses, seminars, and facilities will be available to them.

Oxford-Berkeley Collaboration

The Oxford-Berkeley Collaboration (OBC) is designed to facilitate the exchange of graduate research students (DPhil, MPhil, MSW-PhD, and PhD) between the Department of Social Policy and Intervention at the University of Oxford, and the UC Berkeley School of Social Welfare. The exchange involves up to four students a year from each institution. Students serve as visiting scholars, researchers, academic visitors or recognized students according to the designation of the host institutions. The student exchange involves participation in the host institution for a period of normally three to six months.

The objectives of this exchange are to provide an opportunity for students to broaden their intellectual horizons and gain an international perspective on social policy and social work by studying abroad with faculty and doctoral students in two of the foremost academic institutions in their field. The exchange also provides an opportunity for heightening interaction among faculty from both institutions, facilitating joint ventures on international projects and comparative research.

Application Process

Students interested in participating apply through both the Doctoral Chair at Berkeley Social Welfare; and the Department of Social Policy and Intervention contact at Oxford, Professor Martin Seeleib-Kaiser . Applications to participate can be made only after students have completed their first year of study in their program.

To apply, students submit a written statement that includes:

  • a description of the reason for going to the other university;
  • the length of time they wish to spend there;
  • what they expect to learn and what they will be working on when abroad (e.g., students might be completing one of their doctoral exam papers, gathering data for a dissertation, preparing a literature review of evidence based practice or completing a portion of their dissertation);
  • what they propose to contribute to the host institution (e.g., presentation of a paper, offering a lecture on US or UK practice, research methods or policy).

The application statement will also identify the faculty advisor at the host institution with whom visiting scholars would like to work, any relevant courses that would be audited, and other relevant learning activities at the host institution. Interested applicants should visit the host institution's website to review faculty and their interests and possible courses being offered, which students might audit. Websites also provide a list of current doctoral students and their fields of study. Students planning to participate in the exchange might establish contact with their counterparts in the host institution to explore possibilities of lodging exchange or other arrangements for housing during their stay abroad.

Selection Process

The selection process involves two stages:

  • Applications will be reviewed for approval by the point person (or a sub-committee, which would include the applicant's faculty advisor/chair) at the student's sponsoring institution. Such approval will normally be based on considerations of how the applicants' plans would advance their progress and intellectual development in the doctoral program, and on the number of applications that are submitted each year.
  • Upon approval by the designated faculty at the sponsoring institution, the student submits their application statement to the proposed faculty advisor at the host institution for consideration. Normally the relevant faculty from the sponsoring and host institutions will consult before the final acceptance of applicants. The acceptance of participants will be at the discretion of the host institution.

Procedures and Student Obligations

Throughout their stay at the host institution, participants will remain registered at their sponsoring institution. Oxford students going to Berkeley will pay Berkeley a Registration Fee to cover the costs of obtaining a J-1 visa and mailing the documents. Berkeley students going to Oxford will need to arrange their own UK visa and obtain a UK Visa Letter from the Oxford Department of Social Policy and Intervention.

All Oxford students must have health insurance coverage for themselves and all accompanying dependents for their entire stay at Berkeley. This health insurance must meet specific requirements compliant with the U.S. Department of State Exchange Visitor (J-1) Program. If the visiting student's health insurance does not meet the specific requirements, the Oxford student must purchase health insurance through Berkeley or a private source.

All expenses will be underwritten by the participating students. This is not intended to preclude the possibility that an exchange student may apply for and be awarded a scholarship or similar grant for which he or she may be eligible.

Funding of travel and accommodation costs of participants in the exchange program is the responsibility of participating students or their sponsoring institution. In light of the relatively high cost and limited availability of student housing in Oxford and Berkeley, it is recommended that when possible students planning to participate from both institutions seek to make arrangements with their counterparts for the exchange or sharing of lodging.

Exchange students will be expected to participate actively in doctoral seminars and colloquia at the host institutions, and to make at least one formal presentation of their research at such meetings during their stay at the host institution. At the University of Oxford students will become members of the respective research group during their stay. Arrangements will be made for the assignment of student mentors at the host institution who would assist in orienting the visiting scholars and linking them up with other doctoral students and relevant groups in the host institution. Doctoral students at both institutions are expected to serve as peer mentors to visitors participating in the exchange.

In recognition of their work, a Certificate of Participation signed by the chair or dean of both doctoral programs will be granted to all students who partake in the OBC graduate research student exchange.

The Next Phase

During the first year of the OBC exchange, faculty and graduate research students will typically be planning to implement Phase Two, involving:

  • Virtual exchange via a "breakfast/dinner" Berkeley/Oxford doctoral seminar video conference (breakfast time in Berkeley/dinner time in Oxford), with a small group of graduate research students and faculty on each side, with weekly bi-monthly or monthly meetings during which both doctoral students and faculty present a paper and facilitate a discussion among all participants. This could also provide an opportunity for doctoral students from both institutions to collaborate on papers.
  • A two- to three-day summer institute jointly planned and conducted by Oxford and Berkeley faculty, dealing with evaluative research, comparative policy analysis, etc. The institute alternates between meeting in Berkeley and Oxford.
  • A two-day meeting of the Oxford and Berkeley OBC planning groups held the following spring in Oxford to take stock of the first year and engage in planning for the next phase.

Ekin Ilseven

INSEAD Doctoral Student of Strategy  

The Wharton-INSEAD Doctoral Consortium has been an exciting experience. The presentations were impressive both in terms of their quality and their diversity, having offered both encouragement and inspiration for my own work. Beyond the academic aspect, I was very happy to have met fellow Ph.D.s from the Wharton side, whom I am looking forward to meet, catch up, and collaborate with in the rest of my career. A truly positive experience.

Faculty Exchange

The INSEAD-Wharton Centre for Global Research and Education encourages the exchange of faculty across the two schools.

The Faculty Exchange includes a variety of both long term and short term opportunities for faculty to spend time on the campus of the other school. The objective is to enhance knowledge-building capacity and to promote and facilitate joint research and teaching efforts. The Alliance finances travel expenses and living costs for the faculty member on the exchange.

Short term visits (STV) of up to four weeks encourage exploratory visits to the other school in order to establish research contacts with a view to enhancing research productivity. In addition to these visits, faculty members are invited to present their research during seminars and colloquia at the other school. Over 70 faculty members have visited the partner school to teach or carry out research

Alumni Collaboration

The INSEAD-Wharton Alliance endeavours to reinforce relationships established through the Alliance and to incite new collaboration by hosting large alumni events every year. The Alliance is continually looking for opportunities and creative ways to assemble alumni in order to encourage and inspire networks. For information about recent and upcoming events please contact us.

Dakota State University students walking around campus

Preparation + opportunity = success

That's the DSU equation. We're a four-year university with nationally recognized programs, cutting-edge facilities, and the brightest thinkers. But we're also a tight-knit, inclusive community. Small class sizes mean hands-on training and individualized attention. All this with an affordable, public school price that's among the best values in the region.

Is DSU the right fit for you?

Even the best brochures and postcards (and yes, even websites) can only tell you so much about a college. The only surefire way to know if DSU is right for you is to see for yourself.

Meaningful Contributions

September 10, 2024

Dakota State University’s research exchange program is growing in size, impact, and reputation.  

For three years, Dakota State University has hosted an industrial immersion program for graduate students from DSU and Swedish universities. Students are split into teams that research a certain topic or look for solutions to industry-related problems.

“This is like a melting pot of students from all over the world,” said Dr. Mark Spanier, co-director of the program. “While it is something like an internship, the students are able to really dig into a single problem to make a meaningful contribution.” In 2023, one of the teams created an intrusion detection system that was 95% effective for Case New Holland.

The program was created through a networking connection between the DSU president José-Marie Griffiths and Dr. Mats Nordlund, head of the AI Labs at AI Sweden.

Nordlund said that the first two years were something of a pilot program, but it has now grown beyond that, making an impact with the partner companies, the students personally, and their universities.

This summer, several of the students shared their experiences with DSU’s governing body, the South Dakota Board of Regents. The board’s questions and positive comments proved to Griffiths that these students “changed [the Board’s] perception of Dakota State.”

The 23 students (12 from Dakota State and 11 from Swedish universities) were split into five teams to work on projects for companies such as Volvo, Case New Holland International, and the Swedish Navy through the Swedish Defense University.

Along with the tangible technical knowledge gained, the students gathered experience with intangible learning outcomes, such as the importance of group work, communication, and presentation skills.

Cross-team collaboration was another interesting facet of this year’s process. Several groups studied the aspects of honey pots, a security feature in many programs that acts as “bait” to lure in and catch cyber hackers. This feature allows programmers to study what the hackers are looking for and their methods. Two groups working on different aspects of honey pots combined their efforts to determine their works’ limitations or integration possibilities.

“This process can be synergistic,” said Oscar Palmqvist, a data science graduate student from Chalmers University in Sweden.

Throughout the 10-week summer program, a momentum is created in the learning process, said Mats Hanson, Senior Advisor with AI Sweden. Along with learning research methods, they gain experience with the social, political, and ethical aspects involved in working with technology. Frank Parker, a DSU master’s degree student in Computer Science, saw this. “By working with international students, I was able to learn about political differences with AI laws.”

He added, “This was a tremendous experience. I got more out of this than I expected.”
